Dom Urodzenia Fryderyka Chopina

Frédéric Chopin's birthplace is an 18th-century rural manor house now arranged as a museum displaying the composer's personal items, letters, and musical manuscripts. The building was restored after wartime damage and gives a sense of the domestic setting during his early years.

The manor house was built in the 18th century as a typical country estate and was the setting for Chopin's early life and musical development. World War II severely damaged the building, but extensive post-war restoration made it accessible to the public again.

The house preserves memories of Chopin's childhood and shows how the young composer grew up in this rural setting. Visitors experience here the simple yet artistic atmosphere where the boy's musical gift flourished.

The museum is easy to reach and sits near Żelazowa Wola, another important location in Chopin's life. Visitors should allow time to explore both the house and its surroundings.

The grounds around the house feature an expansive park planted with an impressive collection of plants from around the world. Visitors will discover rare tree species from America, California, Japan, and China that give the place an unexpected botanical depth.
